Rebeccca Grace

Rebecca is a writer, producer, director and editor of narrative films, commercials and many branding narratives. In 2005 she founded GracefulFilms, a post-production facility in Los Angeles where she managed the supervision, editing, sound design and delivery of seven feature films, multiple shorts, and commercials.
GracefulFilms earned the reputation as a studio that could be counted on to rise to any challenge, often transforming what others considered to be mistakes into creative advantages.
Rebecca’s clients appreciated her ability to extract hidden yet pivotal moments of comedy, compassion, duality and metaphor from their footage. The Black Tulip, a dramatic feature film that Rebecca edited, was nominated for an academy award in 2011.
After transitioning to the SF bay area, Rebecca focused on building professional relationships and connections, working as a freelance producer, director, editor and writer for projects for Adobe, Safeway, Ancestry.com, Chase, Facebook and ebay. She is highly regarded for her ability to integrate her skills as a narrative filmmaker into branding narratives.
In 2018 Rebecca founded Complete Picture, a non-profit advocacy organization with the mission to humanize individuals who are facing prison for non-violent crimes. They create comprehensive and honest video portraits, empowering defendants to tell their full story to the judge just prior to being sentenced. The defendants they advocate for come from poor communities disproportionately incarcerated in U.S. jails and prisons.
Complete Picture’s first 13 videos have been instrumental in reducing sentences by an aggregate of over 65 years of prison time for the 13 defendants. For 62% of their clients, the sentences involved no prison time at all. They have helped save taxpayers $6,623,395 in costs associated with incarceration and they have a 100% success rate - every judge who has watched a CP video has offered the defendant a lighter sentence than the sentencing guidelines.
Complete Picture is planting the seeds for a future where the utilization of a well-told story to provide due process, promote empathy and combat implicit bias will be a widely used and accepted form of mitigation for everyone, regardless of race or socioeconomic status.
